COACHING PROGRAMME

Coaching will  accelerate your knowledge of tennis tactics and improve your skills and is open to anyone including non-members. 

We have an extensive coaching programme at the club which runs from Monday through to Saturday throughout the year.   Our main coaching team has two coaches, Neil Watts and Elliot Kami. Neil is LTA Level 4 qualified, and Elliott is an experienced Level 3 coach, and currently working towards Level 4.  Our committee lead for coaching, Hilda Moore, is also a qualified coach. 

Neil is our lead coach with over 35 years of experience both on court and as a coach.  He played on the professional circuit and achieved ranking of 13 in the UK. He also played internationally but has spent the majority of his time in Wiltshire teaching at various locations  primarily at the Delta Centre, having also formed the Wiltshire Academy where he developed the junior base of tennis talent for the county amongst other coaching achievements. Neil has experience in all coaching from fun junior camps and weekly sessions, through high performance training, cardio, tactics and adult coaching of all levels, and has experience of developing both players and other coaches. 

Elliott Kami, is our Level 3 coach and has been active at the club since 2021 and coaches juniors, adults and delivers private lessons.
